Kea Common Lisp pre-release

I have finally run out of excuses to delay publishing Kea Common Lisp, the compiler for Parrot I've been hacking on for years now. Attached please find a draft of the release announcement and the README.text file it mentions; these should be enough to download it and try it out. For those who a

Nope. The PDD tickets have to be sorted out as well. Anyone wants to make a list of 'em, that'd be helpful. On Sep 1, 2007, at 11:44 AM, Bernhard Schmalhofer via RT wrote: On Mi. 27. Jun. 2007, 07:23:18, coke wrote: All [RFE] Tickets have been moved. Coke: Can this ticket be closed? There a
